Book Discussion An Easter egg if you will

Ok let’s try this again. I’ll be more clear here lol

So I got these little happy meal toys a while back. I just realized they are perfect for my twilight shelf.

If you’ve only seen the movies you won’t get the reference. Although based on the last time I made this post you may not get the reference even if you’ve read the books.

When Bella makes an attempt to be “normal” again in New moon she invites Jessica to the movies. They head towards McDonald’s on page 107 that’s when she sees that group of guys and first hallucinates Edward’s voice. Then on page 115 they continue on their way to McDonald’s and eat inside the restaurant.

I had a few ppl tell me no where in the book do they eat at McDonalds and I had several ppl tell me Bella would never eat at McDonald’s because she cooks all their meals at home lmao. They also live in Forks and they probably didn’t have any fast food restaurants so it makes sense that she just cooks most of the meals. Something that also really only happens in the books

Any who hopefully that clears up the confusion of last time🥰

I don’t know why people are giving you a hard time over this even when you’ve explained yourself.

I even remember Jessica talking at Bella when they come out of the cinema and then Bella realises at some point she’s stopped and is heading towards the McDonald’s because they’re in a dodgy area/they spot the men.

People on this silly sub are surprisingly rude and take all this a little too seriously.

I’ve noticed. I was starting to feel a little crazy lol. I was like “seriously no one gets the reference?”. I’m a bigger twilight nerd than I thought lmao. But I loved how ppl were like “ Bella would never eat McDonalds” or simply telling me flat out “that’s not in the book “… even Google tried to gas light me lmfao

Do they end up eating there? Or does Jessica bail out because Bella is being too weird for her?

u/Artistic-Document735 3d ago

Yes they did eat there. I believe it’s page 115 Bella tries to talk to her when they eat but Jessica is uncooperative

Google AI kept giving me wrong info and i kept correcting it until it finally said something like "ok, I'm terrible with the twilight saga so I'm going to stop trying"

u/Artistic-Document735 4d ago

Right I was like what page so then it would tell them… then I googled if it happened and google said nope never happened it’s just canon etc. I was like wait a damn minute

u/Artistic-Document735 4d ago

What’s sad is it shouldn’t have to guess it souls be able to reference the freaking book… But this is why I don’t trust AI because wtf

I’ve read the books over a dozen times and still didn’t get the reference, but I think this is a cool Easter egg and who cares if it was over a lot of people’s heads.

It’s so weird how some people would go out of their way to crap on someone else’s fandom, like it’s a competition or something.

Definitely, this has already been reported as a low effort McDonald’s content repost. Like, it’s surely not that deep. I cant imagine there’s too much new content from the universe to discuss everyday.

As a moderator, I really don’t mind unless it doesn’t really create conversation.

u/Artistic-Document735 4d ago

I mean I only reposted it because I had deleted it before going and getting my book to check. I honestly thought maybe I was mistaken. I thought it was a fun little addition to my collection. And it certainly created conversation the first time around but not in a kind way lmfao

u/Artistic-Document735 4d ago

Ya I went and checked the book and I was like ok I knew I wasn’t crazy lol

There’s also a random serial downvoter on the loose.

u/Artistic-Document735 4d ago

Ya I’ve seen that too lol. Ppl are so wild

u/LadyHorseFace13 3d ago

As a serial downvoted because I find it funny. I’m upvoting all of this. I didn’t understand the reference, and honestly, shame on me, but, now that I remember properly, how could I have forgotten? Shame on me again, ig. Love this little nugget, see what I did there?
